Zusammenfassung:	An electronic vertical adjustment focal plane assembly for electronic selection of a field of view from a larger field of regard is disclosed. In one embodiment, the electronic vertical adjustment focal plane assembly includes a lens assembly configured to focus radiation coming from an external field of view on to the focal plane assembly. Further, the electronic vertical adjustment focal plane assembly includes a fixed focal plane assembly that is oversized to substantially cover an entire field of regard and configured to receive the focused radiation from the lens assembly and to output a signal. Furthermore, the electronic vertical adjustment focal plane assembly includes a video controller electronically coupled to the signal from the fixed focal plane assembly and to generate an image based on an electronically selected desired elevational field of view.
